Purpose
- Hydroelectricity
gollark: Hmm. I don't know how to Minoteaur the Minoteaurs.
gollark: Oh, right, the actual video: this is an amateur potatOS security researcher revealing a bug they found.
gollark: So the general and robust fix for this would be to stop doing I/O this way for anything but performance-sensitive and fairly robust (terminal, FS) I/O and API stuff, but PotatOS has so much legacy code that that would actually be very hard.
gollark: As it turns out, you can take a perfectly safe function with out of sandbox access and make it very not safe by controlling what responses it gets from HTTP requests and whatever.
gollark: And *another* Lua quirk more particular to CC is a heavy emphasis on event-driven I/O via coroutines.
